Cataclysm Moves Me I Regret to Say: Poems (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798312256581)

In dreamy, vivid verse that sways between talky confessionalism and formal elegance, Stephanie Yue Duhem confronts the large and small cataclysms that make up a life-from the tumult of immigration to the awkwardness of social foibles, the pandemic to the technological singularity, the anguish of lost love to the demands of art.

"[Duhem's] collection is a place where ancient personae make contact with the idioms and vocabularies of the twenty-first century..."-RYAN RUBY, author of Context Collapse

"...slides between the nostalgic confines of our earthly bodies and the truth of our discomforting futures."-ELLE NASH, author of Deliver Me

"[These poems] fly off like Noah's raven and his dove, tinged with the vital twin possibilities of failure and hope."-TOM SNARSKY, author of Reclaimed Water

"Readers will find themselves rereading stanzas under surreal skies replete with birdsong-baffled by the prowess of Duhem's perception..."-SHY WATSON, author of Horror Vacui

"A spectacular, tender, and sensitive book of poems-but also alarmingly funny, even in its mood of socio-technological gloom."-TAWANDA MULALU, author of Please make me pretty, I don't want to die

"...this collection feels like strolling in and out of a manor house, or gold leaf catching wind..."-GABI ABRÃO, author of Notes on Shapeshifting
